The wheel uses 3M Re-Engineered Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain, a proprietary technology where sharp, angular grain structures continuously fracture to form new cutting points. This mechanism allows the wheel to run cooler, wear evenly, and maintain cutting speed throughout the life of the disc. At 4.5 inches in diameter and 0.125 inches thick with a 36-plus grit rating, it is engineered for trades that need a single wheel to handle multiple tasks without a tool change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wheel is suited for metal fabrication, maintenance, and field service work where both cutting and grinding tasks occur in the same job. It fits standard 4.5 inch angle grinders commonly used by ironworkers, pipefitters, welders, and general contractors. The dual-function design allows it to serve as both a cut-off wheel and a grinding wheel on stainless and mild steel substrates, reducing the need to swap discs mid-job. It is particularly effective for cutting, grinding, and gouging operations where speed and finish quality both matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-function design works as both a cut-off wheel and a grinding wheel on a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRe-Engineered Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain continuously fractures to expose sharp cutting points, extending wheel life and reducing heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRigid, reinforced, resin-bonded construction rated for stainless steel and mild steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReformulated wheel composition delivers improved balance and smoother action compared to prior Cubitrona II abrasives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36-plus grit rating for aggressive material removal with controlled surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5 inch diameter fits standard angle grinders common across metal trades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on stainless steel and mild steel substrates with standard 4.5 inch angle grinders.

Always power down and disconnect the tool before changing wheels. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage before each use and never exceed the maximum RPM rating marked on the wheel. Eye protection, gloves, and appropriate face shielding are required during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 Plus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrain Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Re-Engineered Precision Shaped Ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Resin-Bonded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Mild Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.88 x 4.88 x 2.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.85 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00638060891575\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100305149\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344096952626,"sku":"7100305149","price":303.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310520102.jpg?v=1782029179","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100305149-cut-and-grind-wheel-4-5-in-36-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
